We did. I loved her. I know it seems a little pricey (at least it did for me) but it honestly was the best money we spent getting prepared to have E. Michelle was so nice and super informative. Used to be a nurse. She's has three kids. What was nice is she had one in a hospital, one in a birthing center, and one at home so you know she has had all experiences, med-free.?
She normally, like most Bradley teachers, has the classes in her home but for our class it was in a chiropractor's office. Not sure if she is going to do it that way this time around. There are only 8 couples in the class which makes it really nice and personal.?

I think Bradley definitely helped me have a med-free birth. I learned so much about my body and what was really happening. So glad I took it and it really helped DH understand what was going on too. It made it more of a 'we' experience rather than 'me' being pregnant and him just being there for the pregnancy/delivery, if that makes sense. I'm actually thinking of getting my Bradley certification now too.

Yes, my husband and I did too. Michelle was great. It was wonderful to hear her experience both as a mom having gone through birth both in the hospital and at home and also her experience as an L&D nurse. It was really helpful that she knew all the medical terms and hospital procedures in addition to the Bradley stuff... DH and I felt very prepared but as it turned out baby was a persistent posterior so I had a C-section. I highly recommend her class!
